Anti-Terror Judge: 2,000 French Fighters Now in Syria

Top French anti-terrorism judge Marc Trevidic has repeatedly warned about the threat posed by recruitment of European fighters to the Syrian Islamist factions in that nations civil war. Today he revealed a problem much worse than anyone imagined.

Back in January, French President Francois Hollande shocked many with the claim of 700 French fighters going to Syria, a stark increase over prior estimates. Trevidic today said the number could be as many as 2,000.

“There was an explosion when that first generation came home,” Trevidic warned, saying that they had fueled a huge recruitment drive, with boys as young as 15 trying to leave for Syria, and female recruits leaving to marry jihadist fighters.

Trevidic said that there was no imminent threat of attacks on France from the jihadists, but that this was inevitable as they “grow discouraged at the idea of an Islamic state ever being founded in Syria.”

All of the sudden the “rebels” are changed to European or in this case French “fighters” in Syria, so, Jason what happened to Syria civil war concept you been presenting?

Look: there are hundreds of Islamic religious sits all over Europe build and financed by Saudis and UAE in late1980s, before, during and after 1990s the European working man and women’s were demanding for European democracy to function for the people, the progressive Christianity was part of the people’s movement so as the true social democrats, socialism and all other radical political parties, unions and etc were demanding the end of vulture capitalism monopoly in social politics and economic. To stop the people’s demand, the Saudis-Wahhabis Islamic idea started to grow and developed to what it is today, during Balkan war, they were brought from all over Europe and Middle East to fight against socialism in Yugoslavia, later Bill Clinton, Madeleine Albright, Tony Blair, the Saudis, the French, the Swedish and Germans managed to establish the first Sunni regime in Europe, later they were used in gulf war, later in Afghanistan and later in Iraq and Libya and now in Syria. The “religious” war is the new trend for the economic and political western establishment to stop people’s demand for better life with no poverty, a universal healthcare, free education as existed in Yugoslavia, Iraq, Libya and still exist in Syria, NSA and police state is another.

Final note: these people (French or European fighters, as Jason have started calling them) are brain washed by those whom are living in Stone Age yet driving a million dollars car, these people are not rebel nor they are after a social economic or political justice nor they revolutionaries, they are simply a paid mercenaries, thugs, religious anarchist and many of them are religious fascist.

Look: Saudi Arabia kingdom-Wahhabis is not going to let a church to be built in Saudi soil, that alone would make many western regime to cooperate with them when their “idea” can be used against the people’s demands for a functioning democracy.

Brilliant strategery. Now Western leaders can justify massive-surveillance and police state tactics in their home nations to protect against these guys when and if they come back from the Syrian battlefield.

Al-Qaeda and "terrorism" are tools for the machinations of the self professed elites in western nations. I'd call it Machiavellian rather than "brilliant" because it's all about creating a climate of fear used to control domestic populations.

Few, perhaps none, of these "French" fighters are actually French. A bad immigration policy can be every bit as disastrous as a bad foreign policy.
